Compared to classic micrographs, computed tomography enables a non-destructive, three-dimensional and material-independent mode of operation, which delivers much more profound results. Even in building material testing, methods with limited informative value can be checked and supplemented by CT examinations.

The need to detect Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and Home-made Explosives (HMEs) at a point of suspicion, has grown rapidly due to the ease with which the precursors can be obtained and the reagents synthesised. The limited availability of immunoanalytical tools for HME detection presents an opportunity for the development of new devices, which enable a rapid detection and recognise the target analyte with high specificity and sensitivity. In this work, we introduce an optical biosensor for highly specific and sensitive HME detection. The immunoassay system is placed in a hydrogel environment permeable to the analyte and transparent to light interrogating the fluorescently labelled antibodies. The readout of the immunoanalytical system is realized with Supercritical Angle Fluorescence (SAF), an advanced microscopy technique. To accomplish this, we made use of recent, commercial high resolution (< 22 µm) Liquid Crystal Display 3D printers to fabricate a parabolic optical element with high refractive index (RI>1.5) and transmission values (>90%) from photo-resin. Aiming at a new generation of sensors, which not only can meet the requirements of trace detection, but can also be used for substance identification, the combination of immunoanalytical recognition with SAF detection offers a modularity and versatility that is principally well suitable for the measurements of target analytes at trace levels.

An attempt is presented here for real-time monitoring of process transients, deposit profile, and quantitative assessment of arc power, energy input and its influence on deposit dimensions.

The industrial standard of multi-layer submerged arc welding (SAW) for joining of thick metal sheets is the current bottleneck in the production of monopiles. A possible increase in productivity by the implementation of high-power laser welding in a newly developed mobile vacuum chamber (MoVac) and an electromagnetic root support is the subject of this study. Single run butt welds are performed in flat position on S355 mild steel of thicknesses up to 80 mm using a disc laser system with 1030 nm wavelength and a maximum output of 60 kW. The laser optic is fixed on the MoVac-System which is held and manipulated by an articulated robot.

However, this can easily result in considerably high costs, time-consuming fabrication processes and the restricted availability of unconventional optics, which is especially problematic during the development phase of such devices. In this work, we propose LCD 3D printing as an alternative cost-effective technique, which is not only user-friendly but also free of design constrains enabling to fabricate free-form optics. A physical and spectroscopic characterization of six commercially available resins was performed together with the replication of optics and chemical sensing applications as a proof of concept. The optical transparency of the commercial mixtures was evaluated to discriminate the materials optically not suitable for the fabrication of transparent optical elements. Among the six resins, five were considered optimally transparent, with an optical transmittance >85% in the visible spectra range. However, fluorescence analysis of two of these commercial resins, assessed with an excitation-emission matrix (EEM), showed a high autofluorescence in the most common spectral working area of 410–600 nm. Therefore, only three commercial resins were considered for an in-depth evaluation. Ensuring that the refractive index (RI) of the resins complies with that of the most common optical materials, i.e., possesses a RI ~1.5 like polymers such as plexiglass or polycarbonate and glasses such as N-BK7, another important feature is an adequate surface quality of the printed objects. This could be accomplished with a dedicated post-treatment procedure allowing to reach a surface roughness of Rq = 0.07 μm, which agrees well with the values of common glass (Rq = 0.05 μm) and polymer lenses (Rq = 0.075 μm). To demonstrate the suitability of the 3D printed lenses, two different chemical sensors earlier published by us were replicated using the equivalent 3D printed lenses, i.e., a strip test for hydrocarbon detection using a 3D printed aspheric condenser and a microfluidic device for the determination of water chlorination using two cylindrical 3D printed lenses.[1, 2] Independent of the optical material used for the lenses, both assays exhibit similar calibration curves and results (see Figure 1 for one example), suggesting that LCD 3D printing is a suitable technique for the fabrication of free-form optics that allows to design, fabricate and test unconventional optics for miniaturized sensors in a much faster and distinctly less expensive manner.

The constant heat source in the AM continuously affects the just-solidified grains beneath the melting pool, leading to directional grain growth (DGG). While real-time measurements of the non-equilibrium microstructure evolution is challenging, here developing a computational framework to systematically explore DGG becomes imperative. We have advanced a comprehensive approach, integrating mean-field modeling and phase-field simulations, to elucidate the dynamics of DGG under an external driving force. Our simulations unveil a steady-state power-law grain growth kinetics during DGG, characterized by the interplay between curvature-driven dynamics at grain boundary junctions and directional driving forces.

In addition to investigating the local coordination sphere around the Zr atoms and the material properties, we were able to establish a catalytic behavior of ZCF in C-F bond activation reactions. We present the first heterogeneous catalyst that performs dehydrofluorination of a fluoroalkane and consecutive hydrofluorination of an alkyne at room temperature.

This study examined the influence of heat accumulation on the distribution of residual stress in two prisms produced by Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) of austenitic stainless steel 316L. The layers of the prisms were exposed using two different border fill scan strategies: one scanned from the centre to the perimeter and the other from the perimeter to the centre. The goal was to reveal the effect of different heat inputs on samples featuring the same solidification shrinkage. Residual stress was characterised in one plane perpendicular to the building direction at the mid height using Neutron and Lab X-ray diffraction. Thermography data obtained during the build process were analysed in order to correlate the cooling rates and apparent surface temperatures with the residual stress results. Optical microscopy and micro computed tomography were used to correlate defect populations with the residual stress distribution. The two scanning strategies led to residual stress distributions that were typical for additively manufactured components: compressive stresses in the bulk and tensile stresses at the surface. However, due to the different heat accumulation, the maximum residual stress levels differed. We concluded that solidification shrinkage plays a major role in determining the shape of the residual stress distribution, while the temperature gradient mechanism appears to determine the magnitude of peak residual stresses.

However, they also present some challenges related to quality control. In fact, the optimization of both the AM process and the properties of TPMSS is impossible without considering structural characteristics as manufacturing accuracy, internal defects, and as well as surface topography and roughness. In this study, the quantitative non-destructive analysis of TPMSS manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V alloy by electron beam melting was performed by means of laboratory X-ray computed tomography (XCT).
